Woolworths Scraper — AU Products, Prices & Specials

Woolworths Scraper gets product and price data from Woolworths Australia (woolworths.com.au): current price, was price and savings, specials and half-price flags, unit price (e.g. $1.75 / 100g), stock status, barcode (EAN), brand, pack size, star rating and review count, department and category, Health Star Rating, allergens and image. Search by keyword or paste category links, keep only specials, and sort by price or unit price. No login, no API key.

What you get

• Search any term (e.g. tim tam, milk, nappies) or scrape whole categories from their woolworths.com.au/shop/browse links.
• Price, was price, savings, special and half-price flags, and the promotion label shown on the tile (e.g. Save $1.60 · 20% Off).
• Unit price (cup price) for real comparisons, plus in-store price.
• Barcode (EAN/GTIN), stockcode, brand, pack size, image and product link for matching against other retailers.
• Stock status and supply limit, star rating, rating and review counts.
• Department, category and subcategory, Health Star Rating, allergens and may-contain statements.
• Specials-only mode and sorting by relevance, price, unit price or name. Sponsored tiles are skipped by default.

FAQ

Which store's prices are these?

The default online prices woolworths.com.au shows to a visitor who has not chosen a store. Prices are in AUD.

Can I get only specials?

Yes. Tick Specials only: the Actor asks Woolworths for specials and keeps only products currently on special.

How do category URLs work?

Open a category on woolworths.com.au (e.g. Snacks & Confectionery > Chips) and paste the link. Sub-categories work too.

Are sponsored products included?

No, sponsored tiles are skipped and not charged unless you turn on Include sponsored products.

How is it priced?

$0.80 per 1,000 products. No start fee, and nothing is charged when a search finds no products.

Is it legal to scrape this data?

The Actor collects publicly available information only and does not log in or bypass access controls. Use the data in line with the website's terms and the laws that apply to you, especially when processing personal data.
